A PSA 10 currently sells for about £72.37, raw the card sits at £22.26 — 3,3× as much. Of 6.864 copies already graded, 54 % received a 10 and 34 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £53.85 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 75 auctions the median was £22.70, across 127 fixed-price sales £25.78. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £21.73 and £28.33, with a median of £24.31. Selling fast lands you nearer the lower end; with patience, good photos and a complete title the upper end is achievable.

The cheapest genuine sales were around £17.17. Offers well below £10.30 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

From real sales: French £29.84 (10), English £22.25 (225), German £19.35 (14). French fetches about 54 % more.

lastsold uses only real sales — eBay plus auction houses like Goldin & Fanatics — recent sales count more (recency weighting), outliers and fakes are removed. It's not an estimate but actual sold prices, separated by condition, language and grading.
